Packages & Pricing
My Process
I don’t work with any couples without an initial discovery call to confirm that we’re the right fit for each other! Music is deeply personal and I want to be certain that I can stay true to my values while providing the service you are hoping for. On our discovery call, I am always happy to put forth my recommendation for what options make the most sense for your celebration after hearing more about all of your goals for the entertainment at your event.
On our discovery call, please be ready to share what your goals are for the entertainment at your wedding!
Basic Pricing Guideline
As a solo operator, I can only be in so many places at once. I intentionally don’t take on as many events as possible so that I can give each and every couple the attention they deserve!
Most couples invest between $5,000 - $7,500, although I’m always happy to put together a custom quote including everything you need and nothing you don’t.

Let’s Go Bigger — $7,500
To take your event to the next level, I recommend adding an experience, an enhancement, and some atmosphere. I want you to pick which options are most exciting and reflective of the party you want to throw so I offer the following, choose one from each category for this package.
The Experience(s) Something to truly entertain your guests
High Energy Live Sax Duo — Benny Nord & Ben Cline put on a one-of-a-kind show during your dance to blend the ‘happening in front of you’ power of live music, with the range of a talented DJ.
Photo Booth — High quality DSLR camera photo booth lets guests capture moments throughout the day and put them in your gallery. Give your guests something to do when they’re not dancing!
The Enhancement(s) Take moments and make them magical
CO2 Cannon — Fire a blast of CO2 during peak energy moments into the crowd. We put the CO2 in your hands! Creates an epic moment & photo op to hype up your crowd.
Fog Geysers — Longer lasting vertical bursts of fog that elevate drops and add some atmosphere for the lights to reflect off!
Additional Live Music Options — Add a live pianist to your ceremony, acoustic guitarist & vocalist for cocktail hour, or a whole slate of additional options.
The Atmosphere
Disco Ball — Timeless, classic look to bring your best disco vibes to life. (Includes lighting necessary to make it really pop)
Additional Uplighting — While my basic package includes 8 uplights to illuminate the booth and dance floor area, triple your uplighting to really add some ambiance to your venue. Static look during dinner will switch to dance ready lighting after your first dances are complete.
Unique Tube Lighting Install — I use elegant tube lights to provide unique static looks. Check in with me about your venue to hear how we can incorporate this modern lighting option!

GREAT question. I am a bit of a gear freak so it truly depends on the event I’m doing. I never upcharge to bring the right gear to get the job done. If you’re wanting to get into the nitty gritty of mics, speakers, cabling, and more, I’m happy to talk through a production game plan you feel good about.

Absolutely I do, and I’m so sorry that is a questions folks still need to ask.

If there is an idea or enhancement you’re excited about, let’s talk through how to incorporate it into your big day. If it’s something I don’t offer, I likely am connected with somebody who does.
